Approximately 15.59 million South Korean digital asset investors hold assets totaling around 70 billion US dollars

Foresight News, according to Yonhap news agency, the data submitted by Lin Guangxuan, a representative of the Democratic Party of Korea and a member of the National Planning and Finance Committee, showed that by the end of November, the number of South Korean digital asset investors had reached 15.59 million, an increase of 610000 compared with the end of October, more than 30% of the South Korean population. The total amount of digital assets held was 102.6 trillion won (about 70 billion dollars), and the amount of deposits (that is, funds not invested in digital assets and stored in exchanges) was 8.8 trillion won (about 600 million dollars). The data refers to the number of investors who have accounts on the five major exchanges in South Korea (Upbit, Bithumb, Coinone, Korbit, and Gopax), so there may be duplicates when the same person has accounts on multiple exchanges.
